Just looking at the source, the line
<EXPRS>{BACKTIC2_UP} { handle_backtic2(yytext, yyleng,
LEN_BACKTIC2_DOWN, 0); }
is probably what should trigger on the "))", which takes it into
if (FLTSTACK_OK && (which <= 0) && (FLTSTACK_THIS.backtic == test)) {
and fails there for some reason -- otherwise it would go back to the
string/literal coloring.
(I'm in the middle of ncurses, but may dig into it tomorrow to get a better
answer).
